No1 likes 2 talk about this but hear me out:

Have u ever been daydreaming about Prince, or merely listening 2 his song and u inevitably start 2 think "What if..." or "What would it b like if.."It's not really a question of "if" cuz we all gotta go, but...somehow it seems strange 2 think of P as...u know- . I can't even say the word.

So here I'd like 2 talk about it openly. What do u think will b ur reaction when u hear the news? Will u cry? Will u not cry at first but cry later? Will u cry at all?

This is not 2 b morbid or make it seem like trivia, I just wanna know. I would probably b very shocked at first, then deny it 2 myself. Then I'd probably cry weeks later, cuz it usually takes a while 4 me 2 do that.

I remember when I first became a fan and I was 10, I made a promise 2 myself that I would meet him one day. The age difference worried me, cuz I knew he'd b much older than me when he was old and I wanted 2 meet him, just by myself 4 a few moments. That was my little goal and it still is my hope. What about u?

Do u think that P will still have unreleased material when it happens? Do u think he will have it laid out in writing somewhere how he wants it 2 b released, if there is stuff left? I think he would.

Do u think his ___ would get a lot of media coverage? I have a feeling that P will become very huge when it happens, which is 2 bad. He'll probably b ignored 4 the next few years. But then slowly people will discover his greatness. It'll take a while tho'.

Being that he is a human being, he probably has thought about it, as we all do, but he probably doesnt let it stay in his mind 4 long. He probably would say "Well I have more music 2 put out now, can't b thinking about that." At least, that's what I'd like 2 think.

God, I love him.

Ya know what? You and/or some of us may go before he does. You ever think of that? Age is not always a factor. You ever think of that? I knew a woman who used to say she didn't think Michael Jackson would live long (this was back in the 80s). I asked her why. She just said he didn't seem like the type of person that would have a long life. You know what? The woman was hit by a car and died 7 years ago...

eye no, eye him 2...and that's all u probably really wanted 2 say!

So whats ur point? I cant think about it? Stop proselytizing.

People shouldn't use big words just to look smart, when they really don't know the meanings of them.

Like I said from the beginning if this ever happens I really won't bearound to worry about his music being catologed. Also,in the beginning of the joining of this site I said I could envision his fans all committing Mass Suicide at his Gravesight or outside his Home . But I'm not in anyway Advocating Suicide. Look what some fans did over Kurt Cobain,Lennon,Elvis. Listen these are my views and I am very far-out in my views and Respect for Prince. What can I say. It's me and the way I feel; please don't Crucify me for Loving Prince. I think he's wonderful and I always will. I wish him God's love and Protection always.

I don't believe that Supernova was trying to CONVERT you. He was expressing his own opinion on the matter, which you obviously can't accept because it differs from your own!

ive noticed she has been doing this lately...she must be reading a dictionary or something...

Hmmm... no, I have never thought about Prince dying or what I would do when he does. I do think, at times, about those that I love dying and how I will react to their not being there beside me any more.

But, now that you have me thinking about it, when he does pass on, I will feel a moment of sadness as I do when hearing about anyone dying... famous or not. The sadness doesn't really come from them being gone, those that I don't know, but more my thinking of what happened to cause them to pass. I won't cry, because I don't know him. His passing will certianly be a great loss... as it is every second of every day when somone dies.

I do wonder if his family, and those close to him, spend much time thinking about this. I wonder this because this topic has been brought up many times through the years, and it's somewhat strange to me that people who don't know him personally would be affected so much by his passing. What is it? The way his music has touched you? The thought that there is a connection with him and you? (I am not speaking to you personally Nep... just in general.) I have known many girls who think that they are destined to be with him. So what is it exactly that makes people feel so strongly about him? So much so that they would be affected so greatly by his death? Kind of strange... it's sort of like an "Elvis" thing...

BTW, I am not saying that there is anything wrong with anyone being hurt by his death... I am just curious as to why so much... that's all.

He certainly was preaching.

I figure that if he dies naturally it may even be when I'm in my 60's. I became a fan when I was 10, so that means that I would have spent a LOT of time listening 2 his voice, reading his words, and supporting his music. That's alot of time and money 2 spend some1 u dont know.

2 u, it may seem strange 2 cry. But U feel like u know some1, like u have a connection through enjoying this music that seemingly no1 else likes. Not a lot of people in my city like Prince. Let alone trying 2 find someone who is 18 or 19 that likes Prince.

People cried when JFK was shot. This man cheated on his wife and was a real asshole in private, yet they mourned him because he was a familiar face. Im not going 2 compare Prince with a President but--well, maybe I am. After all I think nowadays singers have more influence on people than the President. Singers shape the culture and Prince has slightly changed the way I look at things. if I like u, Illprobably cry when ur dead. It's simple as that and I not only like but love Prince so I know what my reaction will be when the time comes.
